Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EF GHIH JKLM NOMP| He lay wrapped in a world of mutilated hands | A |
| Of trees that walked by night and grinning clouds | B |
| To bellowing of bulls his dream's black cloth | C |
| Ripped and let dropp a heart stuck full of swords | D |
| - | |
| He walked and by his side there strode a shade | E |
| Whose tattered hood half hid a ram's dry skull | F |

| Through airs that tingled with a child's low cries | I |
| He glided gentle as a girl's soft dream | H |
| - | |
| Of hyacinth and marjoram in bowers | J |
| Of vernal holiness where at a sigh | K |
| The leaves bend back like gracious hostesses | L |
| To introduce a lover golden in glee | M |
| - | |
| He smashed the bowl of bitterness let spill | N |
| His freighted nightmares on the weeping world | O |
| His soul ecstatic as the chains fell free | M |
| Sped in the likeness of a tiny bird | P |
